     | 1,984 views

    We’re living in a critical moment in history – between the Cross and the 2nd Coming of Jesus! What's the Time? It's time we be ALERT, be ACTIVE, PRAY, and WIN SOULS!

    WHAT TIME IS IT? Mt. 13:35-36; 2 Tim. 4:3 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1.

    The Song Of The Redeemed Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 8, 2025
     | 259 views

    Heaven’s final music joins every redeemed soul in one song of triumph—salvation completed, creation restored, and the Conductor glorified forever.

    Introduction: There’s something sacred about the first song ever sung by a freed people. When Israel crossed the Red Sea, they didn’t build an altar first; they sang. They didn’t need lyrics printed or chords projected. The music came straight from relief, from gratitude, from shock. Water still ...read more

    Itching Ears Gospel PRO Sermon

    based on 3 ratings
     | 107 views

    Faithful, courageous proclamation of God’s Word in every season transforms lives and advances God’s kingdom, even when the world prefers easier, softer messages.

    Some words read like a weather report for the soul. You can feel the forecast in them. Sunlight for the weary, a gentle breeze for the anxious, a steady anchor for the tossed-about heart. Paul’s words to Timothy are that kind of forecast. He’s an older pastor whispering courage to a younger one. ...read more

    Win The Day - Kiss The Wave Premium Sermon

    Contributed by PRO Premium on Oct 9, 2023
    based on 3 ratings
     | 954 views

    This sermon explores the concept of taking the first step of faith, using the story of Nahshon from the Exodus, who courageously led the Israelites forward even when there seemed to be no way.

    There is a legend in Judaism about a man named Nahshon. He only gets one begat in the Bible. Of course, that’s one more than you and me! He is the great-great-great-grandfather of King David. He disappears almost as soon as he makes his debut, but Nahshon is credited with saving the nation of ...read more

    Satan tempts us to sin by attacking the truth of God’s Word and appealing to our natural lusts.

    Satan deceives us into disobeying God’s Word by: I. Attacking the truth of God’s Word - Gen. 3:1-5 A. Challenge to God’s Word (v.1) In Gen. 2:15-17, God had given Adam a clear restriction.

    A story is told in which an accountant answered an advertisement for a top job with a large firm.

    Joy In The Desert

     | 8,930 views

    During the Christmas season, we find ourselves in a deficit of joy. Isaiah describes finding joy in the desert . . . perhaps we are seeking joy in the wrong places.

    How many of you are just absolutely overflowing with joy right now? Let’s be honest with each other, OK? Is there even one person here who can truthfully say, I’m so overflowing with joy I can hardly contain myself? Just one? Would you like to know how to get that kind of joy in your life? ...read more

    Contributed by John Wright on Feb 1, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,618 views

    James teaches that biblical faith is not expressed in words only or just in one’s mind, but that it must be expressed in the actual doing and obeying what God and Christ command us to do.

    INTRODUCTION 1. Open your bibles to James 2:18-26. 2. In our last lesson we discussed two different kinds of faith, from James 2:14-17. We discussed a faith that is not profitable and a faith that is dead. As a contrast to those two faiths, we also discussed a “living faith”. 3. In the ...read more

    Jesus staked His entire reputation on the Resurrection. If it didn’t happen, everything that Jesus said and did is open to question. Easter is not about a crime against an innocent man, it is about a claim -- a claim so spectacular and so crucial that it
